THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLAHTA, OA,
ARE LEARNING KALE.
Oregon Farmers Overcome Prejudice
ot Long Standing.
Krom ll.s Oregon Agricultural Collceo, CorvallU,
Kale is one of the best talking crops
in Oregon. When the Oregon booster
vv .in is to prove that Orcgoti is the
best dairy state in the union he has
i .kl!lc- ''ess he knows what
kale will do to the milk bucket he has
not qualified as a booster. It is called
uic uiousniKj-iicadcd kale, and the
botanist kn.iws if Kr..; i
but it is the plant kale of four letters
that docs the talking. The strange
thing is that it has only been during
jut i us i two or tnrce years that it
has had an audience, though it is
nearly thirty years old in the Willam
ette valley. It lias tried to talk all
those years, but the people wouldn't
listen when it sought recognition.
We never heard it talk," they in-
ii i ' l",LK 1,1 'owa anu incw roric
Hack there cows tiroduce' m!lv with.
out kale, and I guess they will have
to here." That is tradition. It took
thirty years for kale to get an audi
ence in tins state and live down tra
dition.
The tiairymen of New York iiniW
stand what green succulent food
means to the dairy cow, and they
uiuiu expensive suos, nuy expensive
machinery, and grow fertility-robbing
corn, which they irrigate with their
sweat, in order that the farmer dur
ing the long winter months may have
ati excuse for milking his cows. The
Orcgonian needs no expensive silos
to remind the cow of the good old
summer time. Kaicl A thousand
blessings on the thousand-headed
kalcl It is making Oregon the
B.wnv-iji umijr oi.ui; in uic union.
When crown under favorahln rnr.
ditions kale will yield 40 tons per
acre of green feed, and its chief value
is as a soiling crop during the fall
and winter. Splendid results arc be
ing secured by (ceding kale and vetch
uny iu umry cows, witnout any grain
or mill feed. Dr. Withycombc, of the
Agricultural College, says that 15
pounds of vetch hay and 40 pounds
of kale a day is practica'.'v a balanced
ration for a dairy cow. Mr. W. L,
Wilson, of Banks. Or., says: "I re
ceived $207 from 14 cows in the month
of December, apd fed them nothing
but kale, turnips and vetch hay. The
man who feeds chop would have to
make ?237 to clear as much as I do.
I have not had a speck of mill feed in
the barn all winter.
Mr. Byron Hunter, of Corvallih
has-, as assistant agriculturist of the
bureau of plant industry. U. S. depart
ment of agriculture, made a special
study ot the torage crops of Western
uregon, and in Hullctin No. 91, pub
lishcd jointly by the Orcsron Exncri
mcnt Station and the Department of
Agriculture, has the following to say
about kale, which is timely:
"Methods of Sowing For fall and
winter use kale is usually sown n
drills on well prepared and drained
soil as soon after the 15th of March
as the Season will permit. This fur
nishes plants for transplanting in
June and July. The land used for
transplanting is well manured and
plowed two or three times between
the first of March and the first of
June. With the land in perfect tilth
it is plowed again with a 12-inch plow
about the first of June, and the young
kale plants dropped into every third
furrow about two and a half to three
feet apart. This nlaccs about 'one
plant on every square yard. The roots
of the plants arc placed where the
next furrow covers them, leaving the
tops uncovered. The plants that arc
plowed in durinc the day in this way
arc rolled in the evening of the same
day to pack the ground. Two or
three cultivations arc all that can
usually 4c given, for the plants will
scon touch m the row, if they do well.
Any plants that fail to grow may be
replaced by hand. Sonic growers
prefer to plant the seed in hills, nnd
when the plants arc large enough thin
them to one plant in a hill. Others
put kale out just as cabbage is usually
transplanted, instead of plowing it in.
The time of transplanting must be
determined by the sire of the plants
and the condition of the land. If the
land is wet and subject to overflow
the transplanting may be delayed un
til during July. If the land is well
drained and the plants arc large
enough, it may be done before the
first of June. In transplanting,
enough plants may be left for a stand
on the. land where the seedlings are
grown.
A man living nt Maud wants to know
f he can irrigato his trees by means
of a water wagon nnd barrels. Pro
fessor Thornber did not favor tho plan,
stating:
"This would bo rather too complex,
am of tho opinion that you will find
t too crreat an expense, considering
tho vnluo of a team and a man, to haul
this water during tho summer. Tho
Btntion would adviso you to try nnd
conserve this moisturo by means of
culture. This could bo dtino with good
effect during tho summer months. I
liavo had considorablo experience- on
tho stnto collogo campus in hauling
water; and havo concluded, first that
it is impracticable to place water
around tho treo without a heavy mulch
of straw; second, that nothing much
loss than a barrol ot water lor cacn
troo nt each waterinir. Bhould bo given.
This will soak tho ground up fairly
well, nnd in our case, I did not need to
wator tho trees on tho campus moro
than twice during tho summer. I do
not know that it will bo possiblo for
you to mako uso of a heavy mulch, but
in order to hold tho water, it is neces
sary to do so. You can uso rotted
Btrawfor this, or forest leaves."

Young man. If you should come

ant as a sunflower, says as you appear
at the door, "I will be busy for half an
hour yet, for the dishes are not wash
ed," Just squat right down on the door

the prize, and right there you will have
lost an angel.
